Version 1.1 Produced 2016-07-15
Please note that although EYITT was included in last year's ITT consultation, and the data items remain in the ITT and Student collections, NCTL require all EYITT data to be submitted via their own NCTL Data Management System. NCTL piloted Early Years Teacher Status records on the NCTLDMS for 2015/16 and at the time of the previous consultation no decision had been made on whether to continue with this process. This has now been agreed, therefore EYITT is not required via HESA; any data submitted will not be utilised.
The National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) have defined five types of EYITT provision and these are listed below. The table below provides identifies which data items are used to identify the different EYITT routes and the valid entries applicable to each route. Many of the data items relevant to these students are applicable to both the Student record and the ITT record; treatment of EYITT students should be consistent between both returns.
